Gun Control & RKBA

It seems thoughts of using lists in any bill are not acceptable for a few different reasons, and an appeal process doesn't seem likely to work without tipping off a person being investigated, as well as withholding classified information.

Terminology is interesting, "assault weapon" I assume is a military term. It sounds a lot more harmful than "hunting rifle". While I can see why it might seem that the pro-control leaders criticizing this style of gun are thinking to sweep a very big seller off the market - that may be so - my assumption was that it was in direct response to what happened in Orlando. The timing, that type of gun, its qualities, and the fact it's been used in a few mass shootings. That's the perception up here, though our news reflects the way it's reported in the U.S. It's understood that politicians, everyone, wants to make changes to prevent future tragedies. Hopefully something will be agreed on by both sides, but doesn't seem likely to happen soon. And there are obviously other things to be addressed, that lead a person to do that.
